About

The West.
I’ve spent the last 25 years of my life searching for the true, authentic, American West.
I haven’t been looking for the romanticized version we see in the movies and on postcards. I’ve been looking for people who earn their lives through a connection with earth and what the earth supports. I’ve been looking for land with a story, for places of emotion and drama.
I’m looking for True Stories, Authentic Places and Genuine People.
Because the True West is hard and it’s gritty.
And it’s magnificent.
Montana: Real Place, Real People is a book I and writer Alan Kesselheim have produced. It’s a celebration of the unique character and characters we’ve come across in our years of working together in this great state. I also work for magazines and advertising agencies. My fine art work is represented by Gallatin River Gallery.
My family and I are happily settled in Bozeman, Montana.
